ms .docx files with chart showing empty series

I'm excited to see that LibreOffice can now open documents containing ms charts. Sometimes during the import process, a second "ghost" or empty series is rendered. This can unusually be fixed by changing the chart type to a new type and then changing back.

I can confirm this behavior.

@Joey: 
* you did create this document yourself? (in other words: this document is only created and saved once (not saved/resaved/roundtripped multiple times?)

* What version of MS Office and operation system do you use?

Kind regards,
Joren

Yes I created it myself. It was only created and saved in MS Office. 


* What version of MS Office and operation system do you use?

This was created on a Win 7 64-bit PC with Office 2007. 

To reproduce:
1. List a few numbers in a column in Excel
2. Create the chart in Excel with the chart wizard by selecting the data then Insert -> Chart -> Column -> 2D Column (or vertical bar type) 
3. Copy and paste it into Word.
4. Save
5. Open .docx in LO 4.2 or 4.3

Thanks for looking into this.
